Going Nuclear: Notes from the officially unofficial book tour
I work in the analytical labs at one of Europe’s oldest and largest nuclear sites: Sellafield, in northwestern England. I spend my days at the fume hood front, pipette in one hand and radiation probe in the other (and dosimeter pinned to my chest, of course). Outside the lab, I have a second job: I moonlight as a writer and public speaker. My new popular science book—Going Nuclear: How the Atom Will Save the World—came out last summer, and it feels like my life has been running at full power ever since.
The career fair will consist of two parts. The first part consists of a dedicated presentation time of one uninterrupted hour for each company, with time for Q&A at the end, and a virtual booth setup. During the presentation time, each company will present what they do in nuclear, career opportunities, etc. For the virtual booths, each company will have a zoom room where they can have intermittent staffed and unstaffed sessions.During the staffed periods, students may ask questions to the company representatives, but this will not necessarily be 1-on-1. During the unstaffed periods, attendees will only see the company cover slide with times for the next staffed period, and the cover slide will include information about the company itself. Each company may choose the frequencies of their staffed sessions, and may choose to staff their booth for the entire time, just the one hour session, or any frequency or length between these two options.
